Cross-border strikes continue as EU officials condemn Russian attack near Polish border

Cross-border attacks between Ukrainian and Russian forces persisted, despite claims by US President Donald Trump that both nations agreed to halt strikes against energy infrastructure.

In southern Ukraine, regional authorities reported that two people were killed and 14 others sustained injuries following Russian artillery strikes in the Kherson region. Meanwhile, Ukrainian drone attacks injured seven people across Russia's Belgorod region and the Black Sea resort city of Sochi.

Diplomatically, European Union Foreign Policy Chief Kaja Kallas and French Foreign Minister Jean-Noël Barrot denounced a Russian strike on a train close to the Ukrainian-Polish border, characterizing the action as an effort to divide and intimidate European partners. In Kyiv, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky signed a decree removing the national prosecutor general from office.
